"Fair and Balanced": The Mike Hosking Breakfast, Wednesday 31.8.2011

"NewstalkZB. Fair and Balanced."
8:20 a.m. The Mike Hosking Breakfast, Wednesday 31.8.2011
STATION PROMO: No fluffy interviews! No ignorant rambling! The Larry
Williams Drive, weeknights on N-N-N-NewstalkZB!
MIKE HOSKING: And we’re back with the Wednesday politicians, Steven
Joyce and Trevor Mallard.
STEVEN JOYCE: Where’s Annette, Trevor?
HOSKING: Ha ha ha ha ha! Yeah, Trevor, where is she? Ha ha ha ha ha!
TREVOR MALLARD: She couldn’t make it today.
JOYCE: I don’t know why you don’t have Russell on instead.
HOSKING: Ha ha ha ha ha! Ohhhhh, hilarious!
JOYCE: But seriously—the Greens have NO APPRECIATION of the
relationship between action and consequence.
HOSKING: No they don’t! They’re NUTS! They’re OUT TO LUNCH! How can
you DEAL with those people, Trevor?
MALLARD: The Greens have more sense than Don Brash does.
…. SILENCE ….
HOSKING: But they’re NUTS! So, how would you pay for the Earthquake, Trevor?
MALLARD: Increasing tax slightly on the rich and the Capital Gains Tax would p—
JOYCE: [interrupting] That’s just attacking the poor farmers.
MALLARD: There are a lot of rich farmers who pay very li—
JOYCE: [interrupting] See, this is what a Labour government would do.
MALLARD: Hang on! I let you speak without interrupting you. Keep quiet
for a minute, please, and let me speak.
HOSKING: Ha ha ha ha ha! We’ve got to end it there! Steven Joyce and
Trevor Mallard, thank you. Will we see you next week—or will it be
Annette? Or Grant? Or Shane? Ha ha ha ha ha!
JOYCE: You should just use Russell instead.
HOSKING: Ha ha ha ha ha! Ohhhhh, that was hilarious!

I can't believe anyone would spend their day copying talkback radio.
It would be a bit like stealing light fitting.  They just can't help
themselves.

Maybe he's got a special dictophone thingie hooked up to the radio
that not only records but types it up and sends it to his PC.

Actually scratch that. Mo has been known to make small but significant
changes to make things seem worse than what they actually are.

Then point out an example of my doing so. I made up none of that
conversation. Nobody can write more gruesomely funny stuff than people
like Hosking, Leighton Smith and Paul Holmes come up with all the
time. Trouble is, they're usually trying to be serious. It's obviously
beyond them, though.
